Would you take 17th if Villa win tonight?

We are likely to lost at Spurs and Sunderland. Could all hinge on Stoke if we are not careful.

 

Yep, and people should have been sitting up weeks ago. I am afraid too many people have been counting the chickens far too early.

 

Anyone for the 'yoyo' strategy ?

I have been to 4 games of theirs this season for various reasons and the support has been excellent. It has not wavered even when some of the on pitch peformances have been awful. Various commentators have said the same thing, including MOTD a few weeks back, drawing reference to Chelsea fans' negativity in comparison to Villa fans sticking with the manager and team 100%.

 

You mean the same thing they said about us not having a go at Pochettino ?

Wigan must be kicking themselves tonight, they've had a couple of last minute throw aways recently. They're on the brink after this.

 

I'm still going for 4-4 tonight to be honest. :)

 

For the sake of consistency, let's say 5-4 Sunderland. It's still more likely than Saints getting relegated, too.

1) I hope that Sunderland play like this against us, there mis-placed passing has been so noticeable.

2) Wigan won't win 3 out of last 4 (or win 2 and draw 2) or will they?

 

Really don't want to go into match against Stoke not MATHEMATICALLY safe.

Sunderland have forgotten how to play tonight, they are complete turd. Not sure why some think it's a guaranteed defeat up there. If we play anywhere near we can then we'll win.

 

They still have the slow, predictable midfield and the cumbersome back 4. Villa are proving this tonight with a little bit of movement and pace in the final third, it's making them look like a shambles.

I reckon Wigan are more than capable of getting 9 points.

 

People were making predictions based on mid season form but these teams are scrapping for their lives and we will have to do the same.

 

No, if we go down, we only have ouselves to blame.

Sunderland have the same run in as we do. I don't see why they would get more points out of it than us. Yeah, we were woeful on Saturday but we've been very good in the weeks prior to that.

 

Don't you realize, 1 result makes a season. Apparently we're now ****.

The bottom has fallen out of the Premier League. QPR, Reading has gone, Wigan a game in hand, and now half the teams are being sucked into the quicksand

 

 

 

Or, on planet Earth, Wigan are going to be relegated.

Maybe Sunderland are having a "bad day at the office" like we apparently had against WBA, and will be back to thei Di Canio defiant best in time for our visit ?

 

If you're pessimistic you'll think like that, but this is how they've been for the majority of the season. Sluggish in midfield, out paced at the back and well beaten by teams who show a bit of imagination and pace. Still believe we'll win and win well if we play as we can, see no reason why we can't.

 

And now they've lost Sessengen as well.

How about we dont turn up and dont "play as we can" ?

given how ****e Sunderland are to the point that Villa are currently outplaying them, I'm even more confident of safety as it has to be three points against them and surely we would be safe with 42 points! Wigan would have to win all their games to catch us! 5-1 and one man down as I type

This. The smug complacency around here is truly disturbing, considering our clubs predilection for finding the worst in a situation.

 

Villa are winning, and if it stays this way are only 2 points behind us, which means they could be ahead of us at final whistle this weekend.

 

It's you, not the club that has a predilection for finding the worst in a situation. If villa beat Norwich and we lose to spurs, they will indeed be ahead of us. But Norwich will still be behind us. One gains, another loses.
